Hi, would love to see your pics but for now I think I would just mist her a couple times/ warm spray if she is not taking advantage of your moist hides. I just had this happen with a central american banded gecko (female) she looked like a ghost in her white outfit it seemed not to want to come off.

I misted her pretty good , she was not pleased but the stubborn shed skin did begin to come off the next day. Also if it is real resistant and your worried about toes, you can always use a dab of mineral oil on the area, and it should soften the skin right up, and come off quicker, and is safe.

Let us know how she makes out
